    Hello all, 
     
    I decided to go back and play through the campaign a second time and I am hitting some sort of glitch when starting the game.  Liberation Day, the first mission, starts with the cut scene and everything just fine.  However, when the level actually starts, Raynor says his bit, but I never see the marines or Jim.  The game immediately tells me that all my marines are dead.  WTF?!  I have restarted the game, restarted the campaign, etc.  To the best of my ability I can confirm that NO other parts of the game are glitching out like this.  Is this a known issue?  I can't find it anywhere and I've been searching for the better part of a couple hours.  Any help is appreciated :-)

    Never heard of it, maybe it's a corrupted install and you should try a re-install.

    That's what I'm starting to think unfortunately.  Just don't want to have to deal with the patching........again. Isn't there an installation repair option?

    I've heard of this exact problem.   Apparently, the only way to fix it is to use more skill.

    **UPDATE** 
     
    I found that if I just have a little patience and let the cutscene before the mission play through, the mission starts off fine :-)  Thanks for anyone looking to help!  Game on duders.

    Glad to hear you got it fixed! For future reference, there is a repair application in the Support folder inside your SC2 installation folder.

    Having to endure a cut scene is not a skill.

    It's a drug when it is as good as the ones in this.....
           
       
     
    ...love Amped 3. The gameplay is so much better than what they are showing off, the GB crew needed to use more skill but once you do it's a really fun arcade-y Skateboard game.
